Starter Replacement
Putting a new starter on my 90 YJ 2.5. It's seems pretty straightforward. Is there anything I should know?

Man, this site is awesome. I post a question and get 3 answers in an hour. I told my wife earlier today not to worry. I will just ask the Wranglerforum and I'm sure someone will help me. Thanks again guys.

Finished in 20 minutes. Just need a long ratchet extension to reach past the exhaust manifold. Nothing makes me feel better than fixing something on Ol' Blackie.
